    Spirit Lake Hwy

    On Saturday, I rode down to Mt. St. Helens. I blasted down on I-5 to Hwy 505 and on to Hwy 504, Spirit Lake Hwy. Thanks to the cloudy weather, there was surprisingly little traffic for a Saturday. I was able to ride the twisty bits at a good clip without being held-up or having to pass many...

    FS 52/Skate Creek Road & Hwy 7

    I took my first ride of the year on Skate Creek Road from Ashford to Packwood on Thursday. The road is nice and clean. The frost heaves and slumps seem a liitle worse than last year though. There is just a little bit of gravel here and there on the Packwood end. It still was a fun ride...

    new 2012 in Auburn, WA

    Just in case anyone is interested, I noticed that Hinshaw's has a brand new 2012 on the show room floor. They have it listed at $10,990. This might be a pretty good deal for someone that doesn't need or desire a Gen 3.

    On Wednesday, I decided it was time to get some maintenance done on my 2008. Within the first few minutes, I already had a problem, I stripped the two fuel tank front mount bolts while trying to remove them. Shit! Some dipshit (me), must have over-tightened them the last time the tank was...

    Mt. St. Helens/GPNF fall ride

    I rode a 316 mile loop this last Friday. I left my house at 8:30 AM and got back a little after 4 PM. I rode from Tacoma, down through Morton on Hwy 7 and then over to Randle on Hwy 12. From there I rode NF 25 south and picked up NF 99 up to Windy Ridge. From there, I went back to NF25 and...

    I am planning on going for a ride tomorrow. I am thinking about running down to Windy Ridge or anywhere else. I just need to get out for the day. Anyone want to go?

    Remus Hexacone titanium slip-ons

    I guess I am getting old and/or just more conservative. I am selling a pair of Remus Hexacone titanium slip-ons. They have about 15k miles on them. I am asking for $700 shipped or $650 if I don't have to ship them. I am in Tacoma, WA.

    SS1000 to California, then 1300 more miles touring
